This dramatical update may raise some package collisions.

In this reason we keep this version under Test.

Improvements

• More flexible Font Handling under Windows.
  FontManagemnt mode is automatically switched from 'Private Fonts' (when failed) to 'Private In Memory Fonts'. This approach can automatically avoid collisions with any file virtualization software like SandBoxes etc.

Support Express Patches

Revision 17/06/16

Mac and Linux versions based on Win 11.35.

• [17/06/16] Mac version of V 11.35

Version 11.35 (30-May-2017)

• Added yet another 'Font Management Approach' option 'Private In Memory Fonts'.

• Improved font handling: missed fonts, fonts without FullName in FontInfo dict (newtx).

• Recent Files - fixed invalidaccess in removing records.

Version 11.32 (30-Apr-2017)

Windows 10 Optimization

Main improvement is support of process private fonts.

This way can be handled in
'Options / Common Settings / Font Cache / Font Management Approach'

There are following options:

1. Shared Fonts
   Required fonts are installed before first use calling 'AddFontResource'.
   All such fonts are visible by all programs at end of session.

2. Shared Fonts with automatical disactivation - default approach in previous versions.
   Same as previous, but all installed fonts are uninstalling after exiting last BaKoMa TeX program.

3. Private Fonts - default (and recommended) option in new version.
   Required fonts are private for every process.

4. Private In Memory Fonts [TEST: Revision 170505(11.33), Public: 170530(11.35)]
   Similar as previous, but loading font into memory avoids different virtualization of file system for regular files and font files. This can solve problems with different sandboxing software.

Using option (3) under Windows 10 speeds up starting of symbol panels and Page Window.
Also, it avoids hanging at exiting last program as was with using option (2).

NOTE:
This option is replacement for check box:
Disactivate cached fonts after exiting last BaKoMa TeX program.
Unchecked was the same as (1), checked was the same as (2).

Hot Fixes

• [17/04/30] Fixed TeXWord: File / Save As Template

Version 11.31 (12-Apr-2017)

Adapting more Dialogs ...

In progress:

•  Insert Symbols from Windows fonts
  [Windows] Appearance improved - UHD support

•  Insert / Configuring Font Families ... and FF / More Font Families
  [Windows] Appearance improved - UHD support

Synchronization with modification by another program

There is new TeXWord option:

Options / Editing Settings / AutoSave
Moving the caret to first modification of reloaded file.

This option controls positionning in source window after reload of changed file.
Take into attention that positionning of page window is controlled by Synchronization range (V 11.30).
Use these options together to get desired approach.

This option may be used not only with Centaur, but also with other editors.
You must only customize them to save editing file periodically.

More Changes ...

• There is new tab:
  Options / Common Settings has new Testing tab.
  It has options moved from different sources:

  • TeX Running Parameters / Console (Centaur) - completely disappeared.

  • Font Utilities tab of the same dialog.

  • New option which control way to run font wizards: 'Insert Symbols ...' and 'More Font Families...'

• Adjust minimal size of BibEdit and MetaHelp which resolves eventual opening invisible windows.

• Fixed ttfinfo some time crashed with some symbol fonts.

• Updated datetime package - avoids collision with updated fmtcount package.

Version 11.30 (17-Mar-2017)

Synchronization range ...

Main improvement in V 11.30 is:

Controllable range of synchronization of the page with moves in the source.

Options / Editing Settings / General
Synchronization range of the Page with moves in the Source
There are following options:

• Visible Pages
  This approach is preciselly the same as in previous versions.

• Processed Document
  Some intermediate solution. It will always allow synchronization from first page to current page.

• Entire Document (Optimal) - Recommended option.
  It will try process more document pages in order to find position in source. However, it will try minimize processing euristically interrupt it.

• Entire Document (Hard)
  The same, but without euristical interruption. It will process entire document if position not found.

Automatical synchronization algorithm is much more euristic then version called by View/Sync (F6) command.

This algorithm try to avoid long recomputations. However, when this algorithm failed you can improve synchronization by clicking F6.

• Options / Viewer Preferences (TeXWord/DVIEW) - activedialog,
  adaptive to control parameters of different drivers. See: BaKoMa TeX Device Parameters (intrinsics).

Source Bookmarks

Source bookmarks are now available under TeXWord.

They are synchronized between TeXCode and TeXWord together with file synchroniztion.

Bookmarks may be managed from context menu appeared at clicking on left margin of source code.

Changed Bookmark Key binding

Key binding of bookmark commands has been changed as following:

Action

New Keys

Old Keys

Define bookmark #

Shift+Ctrl+1 ... Shift+Ctrl+9

Ctrl+1 ... Ctrl+9

Find bookmark #

Ctrl+1 ... Ctrl+9

Alt+1 ... Alt+9

Undefine Bookmark:

Shift+Ctrl+0

Ctrl+0

ManageBookmarks ...

Ctrl+0

Alt+0

Bookmark shortcuts has been changed to avoid collisions with Alt+0 ... Alt+9 keys under Mac OS.
Alt+numbers are actual in national keyboards under Mac (i.e. german keyboard uses Alt+4, Alt+5, to insert [ and ]).
Remapping rule in short form looks like: In short: Alt+... -> Ctrl+... ; Ctrl+... -> Shift+Ctrl+...

More Improvements

1. Experimental AutoHotKey compatibility mode may be enabled
   in General tab of dialog opened by Options | Editing Settings menu command.
   Tech: Added AutoHotKey.Comp flag (which avoids clearing of StopPoints at editing) In this mode, sequencial BkSp generated by AutoHotKey will correctly remove fixed word.
   NOTE: This mode may raise undesired flickers. However, it may acceptable when working of AutoHotKey is desired.

2. Improved detecting inputencoding - uses inputenc2script to use input encoding option as default script.

3. Messages Window: font size may be quickly adjusted using mouse wheel (with Ctrl) or by Ctrl++/Ctrl+- keys.
   Settings dialog (under OSX) avoids calling of wxFontPickerCtrl to provide more stable work.

4. Dialogs opened by menu commands "File / Print" and "File / Printer Setup" (TeXWord/DVIEW/Windows)
   are placed relative to main window.

Windows 10

BaKoMa TeX 10.81 (recent version of BaKoMa TeX when Windows 10 has been released)

works under Windows 10 without noticeable problems.

However, most of our tests of BaKoMa TeX with Windows 10 was done with version 11.0.

So we declare that BaKoMa TeX 11.0 is well suitable for Windows 10.
